Free SNC2P Resource on EduGAINS!

The Ontario Ministry of Education has recently released a new resource: Light and Application of Optics (SNC2P)
http://www.edugains.ca/newsite/literacy2/subjectspecific/sciencetechnology.html
"This unit builds on students’ prior learning of electricity and electrical applications and chemistry from Grade 9. Students examine technologies that use light and the impact that they have on their own lives. Students learn that light is a form of energy and they investigate the behaviour of light and the properties of colour, using inquiry. Students are actively involved in collaborative learning through the implementation of assessment for learning practices and strategies."
